Not since June of 2010 has ex-90 Day Men/Ponys guitarist Brian Case, guitarist Jonathan Van Herik, and bass player Damon Carruesco made their way back through Atlanta, and this time they had Sonic Youth drummer Steve Shelley in-tow. Now a full-time member of Disappears, Shelly blends pretty seamlessly into the fold, and the cyclical style of his drumming adds a buoyant punch to the drawn-out Krautrcok rhythms being pushed to the edge of post-punk ambiance in such newer numbers as “Replicate,” "Hibernation Sickness," and the absolute show stopper, “Joa.”
